Since parking our car for more than two days is a rare thing thing, I've never kept that close of an eye on parasitic draws or noticed any problems. That is until last month when we were away for two weeks and ended up with a dead battery (3 volts) when we returned.
Anyways the past few days I finally started to look at this closer and following the procedure to check the mV drop on the fuses I've found the following draws when my 2010 Golf Wagon is in sleep/alarm mode:
Fuse 11 - 11 mA
Fuse 10 - 6 mA
Fuse 8 - 133 mA (0.6mV on a 15Amp fuse).
From what I can tell fuse 8 is the "Multifunction display control module". Does anyone know if that is fuse 8 is indeed the MFA and what the consumption should be? I'm assuming it is too high as from what I've read total consumption over 60mA is a not great and 100mA is a concern.
Electrical wise I'm pretty stock except for a Polar FIS and a trailer light module that is spliced in.
VCDS just reports two errors on the radio (RCD510 -01303 and 02635) and the CAN Gateway "01303 - Telephone transceiver. Not sure about that, but it's been there for ever.
There were however a bunch of other errors from when the body shop replaced the sunroof that shattered due to road debris, but after clearing that I haven't seen it come back yet.
I'll have to get the battery tested/replaced as when the car is running it rarely gets over 13.1V-13.4V and when the engine is off it sits around 12.2-12.6 since that drain. When starting it sometimes dips down to about 10v for second.
Any thoughts on what to do next to find out what caused this draw or if I should be concerned?
Thanks
